I have an annual band reunion show Saturday and was going through my gear I had put away for some time. An old bass that didn't work, a pair of stage monitors with tweeters blown, and nearly a dozen various cords in disrepair. Not entirely sure why, but I decided to tear open the monitors to satisfy my curiosity, and to my amazement the horns were not blown but rather the fuses in the crossover. Called mfgr, soldered new ones in, and they were fixed for $11.00... Decided to tackle the electronics of the bass and to my surprise I fixed it on the first try from a schematic on the web. Last night soldered up the cables that sat around broken for ages. All which now work and I did not spend a dime on them to fix. I guess the point of this is that throughout learning about blinky here I picked up more knowledge and experience with electronic gear and soldering that helped in other ways. Thanks!
